A clear photo to upload
Status
Tested 28 Sep 2026 in Gemini app (web), Flash mode with built-in image generation
Test settings
Reference photo: an AI-generated picture of an orange tabby cat, made in Gemini for this test. Uploaded with the default copy text unchanged in a new Gemini chat. First result used; only converted to WebP.
Variability
Shape, colours and small details can vary between runs; compare with your own photo. Gemini adds a small sparkle watermark in the corner.
Prompt
Use the uploaded photo as the reference for the pet. Preserve its breed, coat colour and texture, markings, eye colour, ear shape and body proportions as closely as the model permits; check the result against the reference.
Scene: a plain seamless studio background in light grey.
Moment or Pose: head and top of shoulders, facing the camera straight on, eyes open and looking into the lens, mouth closed, ears natural.
Light: large soft light straight ahead with a small fill below, catchlights in both eyes, even exposure.
Camera: 100mm lens at eye level, f/8, everything from nose to ears sharp.
Style: clean, neutral studio headshot suitable for a pet profile, adoption listing or keepsake card; this is a fun portrait, not an official document.
Format: square 1:1, pet centred with even space around the head.
Avoid: official seals, stamps, ID numbers or any document layout, changed markings or eye colour, tilted head, text, watermarks.
